Hi people.

I've made a DMG with a SGB CPU in it. This makes the boot completely quiet and VERY fast.
I've made a comparison with a regular DMG. Both DMG's are connected to the same power socket, and are turned on simultaneously.
I'm running 8CYLINDER live drum software POUNDER 2.0 on both DMG's. Also I do this PROPERLY with heated air. Not some clumsy soldering iron. This is a top quality solder job. Se pic's if you want: http://www.flickr.com/photos/62235217@N … otostream/

If you are interested I'll make one for you for 75 euro.

I'm from Denmark. So steep shipping prices for US people is expected.

EDIT: I need some cash. 60 Euro will get you a modded DMG CPU board, with SGB CPU. !

Would you sell just the CPU board? This would cut way down on shipping costs. I would consider buying more than one if you would.

Sure no problem. Currently I have 3 SGB's, but only 2 DMG's. BTW was it you that bought some stuff from me not so long ago?

You're talking about removal of the CPU in this case, right?

Yes and also soldering in the new CPU.

The two CPU's are identical, it's only the firmware that's altered.

What I mean is that the firmware is different on the two CPU's..

Anybody interested?

Maybe at some point. This is a cool idea! I just can't afford it right now.

This is one GREAT idea! And how is sounds? AFAIK DMG's sound chip is incorporated into that Sharp-modified Z80 CPU.

Edit: sorry i missed last posts, so it is CPU at same rate, not faster variant like have Color GB?

No it is excactly the same. It is only the firmware (software) that is different. It is not possible to re-program it, thus we psyically change the CPU. I hope that elaborates enough.
